DIRECTIONS FOR USERestraints: AVOID spraying if rain is likely within 6 hours or if strong winds prevail.

DO NOT apply if crop or weeds are stressed due to dry or excessively moist conditions.

THIS IS A PHENOXY HERBICIDE THAT CAN CAUSE SEVERE DAMAGE TO NATIVE VEGETATION AND SUSCEPTIBLE CROPS SUCH AS COTTON, GRAPES, TOMATOES, OILSEED CROPS AND ORNAMENTALS. DO NOT apply in a manner that may cause an unacceptable impact to native vegetation, agricultural crops, landscaped gardens and aquaculture production, or cause contamination of plant or livestock commodities, outside the application site from spray drift. The buffer zones in the relevant buffer zone tables below provide guidance but may not be sufficient in all situations. Wherever possible, correctly use application equipment designed to reduce spray drift and apply when the wind direction is away from these sensitive areas. DO NOT allow bystanders to come into contact with the spray cloud. DO NOT apply unless the wind speed is between 3 and 15 kilometres per hour at the application site during the time of application. DO NOT apply if there are surface temperature inversion conditions present at the application site during the time of application. These conditions exist most evenings one to two hours before sunset and persist until one to two hours after sunrise. Recognising a surface temperature inversion A surface temperature inversion is likely to be present if: • Mist, fog, dew or a frost have occurred • Smoke or dust hangs in the air and moves sideways, just above the ground surface• Cumulus clouds that have built up during the day collapse towards evening • Wind speed is constantly less than 11km/hr in the evening and overnight • Cool off-slope breezes develop during the evening and overnight • Distant sounds become clearer and easier to hear • Aromas become more distinct during the evening than during the day. Information from GRDC Fact Sheet: ‘Surface Temperature Inversions and Spraying’, Jul 2014. Spray timing• Spray during the day wherever possible. Vertical mixing of the air makes surface temperature inversions unlikely and will reduce the risk of drift caused by

surface temperature inversions. • There is a very low risk of surface temperature inversion when there is continuous overcast weather, with low and heavy cloud and/or wind speed remains

above 11km/h for the whole period between sunset and sunrise. • A lack of suitable weather conditions for spraying over extended periods is not an excuse for spraying in unsuitable conditions. DO NOT apply if crop or weeds are stressed due to dry or excessively moist conditions. DO NOT apply with spray droplets smaller than VERY COARSE spray droplets according to the ASAE S572.1 definition for standard nozzles. DO NOT use if rain is likely within 6 hours. Monitoring and record keeping Users of this product MUST make an accurate written record of the details of each spray application within 24 hours following application and KEEP this record for a minimum of 2 years. The spray application details that must be recorded are: 1- date of use with start and finish times of application; 2- the specific location which must include address and paddock/s sprayed; 3- Product trade name (full name) of the product being used; 4- rate of application which must include the amount of product used per hectare and number of hectares applied to; 5- situation, crop or commodity to which the chemical was applied; 6- wind speed and direction during application; 7- air temperature and relative humidity during application; 8- nozzle brand, model, size, type, and spray system pressure measured during application; 9- height of spay boom from ground ; 10- name and contact details of person applying this product (Additional record keeping and/or details may be required by the state or territory where this

product is used). Watch for changes in weather conditions. Stop spraying immediately if a surface temperature inversion occurs or if spraying conditions become unsuitable for any other reason.

ADVISORY FOR BOOM SPRAYER USE IN CEREALS, FALLOW AND PASTURE 1ST OCTOBER TO 15 APRIL USE IN CEREALS, FALLOW AND PASTURES DURING THE PERIOD 3rd OCTOBER TO 15TH APRIL, IT IS ADVISED TO:- - USE NOZZLES THAT PRODUCE EXTREMELY COARSE (XC) TO ULTRA COARSE (UC) DROPLETS. - USE HIGHER WATER RATES PER HA, TO GIVE BETTER EFFICACY. - USE SLOWER APPLICATION SPEEDS TO ALLOW OPERATORS TO LOWER BOOM HEIGHTS. - INCREASING DROPLET SIZE AND WATER RATES WHILE REDUCING APPLICATION SPEED WILL ASSIST IN MITIGATING OFF TARGET INVERSION DRIFT DURING

SUMMER SPRAYING. EXTREMELY COARSE DROPLETS WILL PRODUCE <3% DRIFTABLE DROPLETS.

BOOM SPRAYERS (ground application) DO NOT apply by a boom sprayer unless the following requirements are met: • spray droplets not smaller than a VERY COARSE (VC) spray droplet size category (minimum XC between 3 October and 15 April - advisory) • boom heights 0.5 metres or lower above the target canopy (The higher of either the crop canopy or the targeted weeds) • minimum distances between the application site and downwind sensitive aquatic and wetland areas including aquacultural ponds, surface streams and rivers

(see Aquatic ‘Downwind mandatory no-spray zone’ section of the following table titled ‘Buffer zones for boom sprayers’) are observed. • minimum distances between the application site and downwind sensitive crops, gardens, landscaping vegetation, protected native vegetation or protected

animal habitat (see Terrestrial ‘Downwind mandatory no-spray zone’ section of the following table titled ‘Buffer zones for boom sprayers’) are observed. The buffer zones provide guidance but may not always be completely protective of all agricultural crops.

Must be tank mixed with a knockdown herbicide such as TITAN Glyphosate 450 Herbicide, TITAN Paraquat 250 or TITAN EOS Herbicide. Select appropriate rate from the weed table. For Skeleton Weed, spraying should only be done 6-8 weeks before anticipated sowing date and subsequent cultivation limited to a minimum.

Harvest Aid or Salvage Spray

Broadleaf Weeds ALL STATES 1.7L Apply after dough stage of crop. Interval between application and effectiveness is 10-20 days. For desiccation of green matter, estimate harvest date and apply spray approximately 14 days earlier. Rain between spraying and actual harvest can negate results. Note: Where thistles are tall and branching above the crop, spraying can turn the branches down into the crop, presenting more stalks to cause header comb blockages. Spraying may increase seed contamination of harvest by accelerating maturity. DO NOT use with undersown legumes that have not set seed.

Winter Cereals Refer to Weed Table

For weed resistance management TITAN LV Ester 680 Herbicide is a Group I herbicide. Some naturally-occurring weed biotypes resistant to TITAN LV Ester 680 Herbicide and other Group I herbicides may exist through normal genetic variability in any weed population. The resistant individuals can eventually dominate the weed population if these herbicides are used repeatedly. These resistant weeds will not be controlled by TITAN LV Ester 680 Herbicide or other Group I herbicides. Since the occurrence of resistant weeds is difficult to detect prior to use, TITAN AG Pty Ltd accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of TITAN LV Ester 680 Herbicide to control resistant weeds.
